Built for production PDF → CSV conversion

Everything you need to convert financial PDFs to spreadsheet-ready data at scale.

PDF in, CSV (or XLSX) out

POST a PDF bank statement, invoice, or receipt; the API returns clean CSV rows or an XLSX workbook ready to drop into Excel, Sheets, your ledger, or your data warehouse.

Real columns, not extracted text dumps

For bank statements: date, description, amount, balance per row. For invoices and receipts: vendor, line items, totals, taxes. Numbers are typed; dates are ISO. Easy to ingest.

Reconciled before export

Each file is parsed and reconciled (transactions vs printed balance for statements, line items + tax vs total for invoices) before the CSV is generated. Low-confidence files surface a flag.

Async + webhooks

Upload returns a documentId immediately. Poll or subscribe to a webhook. Designed for batch ingestion and serverless workers.

Bearer-token auth

Personal Access Tokens scoped to your account. Documents encrypted at rest, hard-deletable via API.

Curl, Python, Node, anything HTTP

REST + JSON. Multipart upload. No SDK lock-in.

PDF to CSV API FAQ

Bank statements, credit card statements, invoices, receipts, checks, and tax forms. Pass the matching documentType on upload and the CSV export uses the right column shape.
Yes. The export endpoint accepts format=csv or format=xlsx. XLSX preserves typed numbers and dates, CSV is text only.
Date (ISO), Description, Amount (signed), Balance, Account, Period. Optional: Category and Memo when populated. Header row is included by default; pass headers=false to skip.
Both work. The extraction engine runs OCR automatically when needed. Output CSV is identical regardless of source PDF type.
Yes. The document endpoint already returns structured JSON. Use the export endpoint for file formats (CSV, XLSX, QBO, OFX, QIF, QFX).
Bearer-token auth using a Personal Access Token (PAT) scoped to your account.
